Sunflowers and Roses for Fall

10/30/2013

What a fun time of year to have a wedding and we love the drama of these bouquets created for this weekends wedding. We don't often do lots of weddings in November and this year we have quite a few this year.

This bouquet was being designed for Jessica's brides maids. Ring of Fire sunflowers, Black Bacara roses along with brown hypericum berries make a striking combination, wouldn't you agree?

What I love most about this combination is the different shading and textures that each flower provides. Also, the striking yellow really pops against the dark burgundy roses. Be sure to check out our Fall Category of this website for more photos from this fall themed wedding!

I'm always sharing tips on how to allow your florist to create fantastic floral design on a budget so I could not resist talking about one of last weekends weddings.

Bride Jennifer came to us fairly last minute for her Friday night wedding being held at the Boathouse in Mercer County Community Park. Not wanting to break the bank yet follow her rustic, casual theme and include her favorite flowers - sunflowers - I suggested these centerpieces for her guest tables. A large 8" wide bubble vase is filled lushly with lemon leaves, white and yellow asters and touches of babies breath. Two types of sunflowers - both large local and medium sized "lemon yellow" from South America, really filled the table and set the tone for this fun but classic wedding. Touches of curly willow loops along with black river stones in the bottom, helped to distract the eye from the stems of the flowers. Priced at $55 per table, they really fill the space in the center of the table without costing a fortune. What do you think of these centerpieces?
